    Create a focused beam in displays. These bulbs are LED replacements for halogen bulbs, so they use a fraction of the energy and generate less heat. They also have museum-quality color accuracy, so colors appear as accurate and vibrant as they would in natural sunlight. The narrower the beam, the more concentrated the light. To install them, press the lugs into your socket or use the screw terminals at the base for hardwiring.
